The food was excellent! Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. This is the only Chinese restaurant that truly understands what “extra shrimp” means when you order—they gave us a generous amount! The black pepper shrimp wasn’t exactly what I expected, as it had a slight sweetness to it, but it was still very tasty. The same goes for the lemon pepper chicken—it was different from what I anticipated but still really good. Overall, a great experience with delicious food, and I will definitely be ordering again!

The flavors are incredible, and every dish is a perfect balance of freshness and seasoning. The portions are generous, the service is quick, and the staff were friendly. My favorites are the Mongolian Empire, Black Pepper Empire, Teriyaki Empire, and House Mei Fun, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Magic Wok truly lives up to its name – every bite is magical!

Placed a take out order over the phone today and went to go pick it up. I had calculated how much it was going to cost by looking at their website. When I went to pay, I was off by 15. I was looking at their old website powered through Wix and it is not up to date. I didn’t have enough to pay for the full meal because it wasn’t the price that I was expecting but the guy who helped me was very sweet and considerate and he discounted me. I really appreciate that act of kindness especially over the holidays. Definitely recommend! Food is great! Customer service is great! Everything was done in a timely manner. This made my day. I don’t post many reviews but I definitely wanted to share this experience.

The service was wonderful, and the food was delicious . We live Tuscaloosa AL, and we don't have a restaurant that has good Chinese food. I will definitely return.

So for starters, they get an A in my book on speed and taste!!! My Kung Pao Chicken Empire dish was amazingly delicious and my second order was also really good! The only downside this restaurant has is the parking, but honestly it is worth it!
